Photographer's Note

At the DMZ this blue hut is one of a number of buildings that almost bisect the border. They are meeting places where officials of each country discuss upkeep matters. The guards stand in rather a bizarre way. They stand with their nose in line with the wall of the hut. To keep one eye on the enemy at all times and so they are almost out of the firing line. I tried to take a shot standing behind one of the guards but there are certain areas where you can and cant stop and i got shouted at to move along and came away empty handed. This was the best i got.

100th post..! I don't know why, but I don't have any desire to check out the DMZ. Maybe because it seems like too much of a tourist attraction to me. That being said, this is quite a humourous shot and after reading your note it is bizarre no doubt.

There is a view point at the very north east end of the country by the coast that gives you a view of the DMZ and N.Korea. I forgot the name of that place, Tong-il something- unification something... I'd be more interested checking out that place. ;)

CONGRATULATIONS !!!

Yet another one from DMZ.
Never enough of this kind of shots for me.
Reason for analyzing. Reason for thinking. Reason for wondering about complexity of our most wonderful world.
I haven't changed obviously, over the years.
The same emotions when I stood breathlessly a 100 metres from Berlin Wall (east side of it)as of today, seeing your pictures, Peter.
The same ol' me.
Still asking the questions...

haha Peter you got yelled at as well. Yeah the friendship village (panmunjong sp?) is something of a tourist attraction but certainly a sight to see. The most heavily guarded border in the world. Funny how only foreign passport holders can go up there.
Good comp and a nice view point. The soldier seems one of the poles. Well done.
